Chassis, connectors, screen of the Asus VivoBook S 16 Flip TN3604YA-MC004W
With its thin and light silver Cool Silver design robust due to its compliance with the MIL-STD-810H military resistance standard, it has an elegant and discreet look but also original since it can open 360 ° to convert into a tablet.
Multi-touch touch technology equips the screen and therefore you can interact with the system and software by simply applying at least one finger on it, and this by pressures / gestures.
As it is tactile the screen is treated brilliantly which revives the colors but induces a sensitivity to reflections in bright environment (eg outside).
The screen also adopts a 16:10 aspect ratio offering more height display space than the standard 16:9. Full HD definition is well suited to High Definition content while IPS technology involves large vertical and horizontal viewing angles. Too bad, however, not to be dealing with high-end IPS that would have brought a colorimetry more faithful than average.
A backlight system equips the chiclet keyboard which is convenient so that you can better distinguish its keys in case of limited ambient light.
This thin and light 2-in-1 laptop of comfortable format integrates good connectivity with its USB-C, its Wi-Fi 6E ax and Bluetooth 5.3 wireless modules for connections and communications, its HDMI video output useful to easily connect it to a monitor or TV for example, its audio port but also its 2 USB including 1 USB 3.0 (USB 2.0 compatible) guaranteeing transfers up to 10 times faster than USB 2.0 if USB 3.0 devices are plugged in.
Performance, autonomy of the Asus VivoBook S 16 Flip TN3604YA-MC004W
The Asus VivoBook S 16 Flip TN3604YA-MC004W is a laptop that can be converted into a tablet of comfortable format and yet thin and light intended for everyday versatile use.
Many users will be satisfied with the overall performance delivered by this 2-in-1 hybrid laptop. Because it is equipped with an AMD Barcelo Refresh Ryzen 5 7530U Hexa Core processor associated with 16 GB of RAM.
Thanks to this heart, which is not supported by a dedicated graphics card, you can still watch photos and videos but also play light games. And this using the Radeon Vega 7 graphics solution inserted into the Ryzen 5 Hexa Core.
In addition, this core is suitable for modest multimedia work using multi-cores and RAM, such as video encoding or photo editing.
On the other hand, to often perform work requiring processor and / or graphics resources, it is better to opt for a PC based on a non-low-power processor.
On the storage side there is a 512 GB SSD, capacity equivalent to what hard drives offer as standard. However, in case you need more space, you can use an external storage unit such as a USB 3.0 / USB-C device to benefit from fast transfers.
In any case, an SSD offers several advantages such as greater robustness, lower energy consumption, quiet operation or greater velocity.
In any case, an SSD offers several advantages such as greater robustness, lower energy consumption, quiet operation or greater velocity.
In practice, the SSD guarantees much faster start/stop as well as application processing and launches, or a faster arrival on the cards of online games.
More generally, the SSD ensures much better fluidity and responsiveness on a daily basis than a hard drive.
Of 16-inch format very comfortable especially for a mainly sedentary use (eg at home) by nature, its thinness and controlled weight nevertheless facilitate its transport as easy in this format as for an Ultrabook.
On the autonomy side pending more concrete tests, count on about 6 hours of operation on battery in light use.
